Benchmarking Development Google Hardware 
The Morning Paper
NOVEMBER 3, 2019
Most Linux users cannot afford the amount of resource large enterprises like Google put into custom Linux performance tuning… For Google of course, there’s an economy of scale that makes all that effort worth it. On the exact same hardware, the benchmark suite is then used to test 36 Linux release versions from 3.0

I became the Sun UK local specialist in performance and hardware, and as Sun transitioned from a desktop workstation company to sell high end multiprocessor servers I was helping customers find and fix scalability problems. We had specializations in hardware, operating systems, databases, graphics, etc.

Before you begin tuning your website or application, you must first figure out which metrics matter most to your users and establish some achievable benchmarks. In the context of web development, performance testing entails using software tools to simulate how an application runs under specific circumstances.

I ended up developing a fix for the JVM c2 compiler which Oracle reworked and added as the -XX:+PreserveFramePointer option in JDK8u60 (see my Java in Flames post for details [ PDF ]). Google should be no surprise because they pioneered continuous profiling.) The actual overhead depends on your workload. Back-end servers.

As a Software Engineer, the mind is trained to seek optimizations in every aspect of development and ooze out every bit of available CPU Resource to deliver a performing application. One, by researching on the Internet; Two, by developing small programs and benchmarking. These include Python, PHP, Perl, and Ruby.

The focus of most published research in architecture is on applications implemented in high-performance, “ close-to-the-metal” languages essentially developed before computers got fast. I suggest it’s long past time to move beyond C and SPEC benchmarks and our exclusive focus on “metal” languages.
